About Uilenspiegel Still Lives
A local brass band rehearses for a music competition in Bruges. They are confident that a new march by a young music teacher will get them the first prize. Their chance of winning seems to get an awful lot smaller when a a fight breaks out between the chairman and the music teacher -- urging the latter to sell the march to another band.
Directed by Jan Vanderheyden, Uilenspiegel Still Lives leans on a strong ensemble — Jef Bruyninckx, Sarina Beeckmans, Willem Benoy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1935.
